I can't even get the steam update script to work.

I'm a Linux newbie so updating glibc scares the hell out of me.  Not to
mention the fact that I wouldn't know how to do it anyway.  lol

Hi,

What I did find out is that the server will only crash when running
glibc 2.3.2 on Linux kernel 2.6.12.1, running kernel 2.6.8 works without
no problem. I have not tested the kernels between those two. Upgrading
to glibc 2.3.5 on kernel 2.6.12.1 made the problem go away. I've also
talked a bit with Alfred off-list and he confirmed the problem on my
server and ran some debugging on it. I've also gave him access to
another server we have here so he could debug it better, but I guess he
left work before reading my last reply. He also told me that he might
have a solution for it.

If you are running Linux and have this problem just upgrade the glibc to
2.3.5 and you should be all right.

Here's what I've found for BSD users (linux users might want to
read). I believe glibc 2.3.2 and 2.3.3 are buggy (and old, 2.3.2 is
from 2001 era)..

VERY old glibc's, linux_base is redhat-6 :)

[EMAIL PROTECTED] egrep -r glibc-2.2 linux_*
linux_base/Makefile: glibc-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.i386.rpm:legacy \
linux_base-src-rh-7.3/Makefile: glibc-2.2.5-44.legacy.3.src.rpm:legacy \

Somewhat newer glibc's:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] egrep -r glibc-2.3 linux_*
linux_base-8/Makefile:   glibc-2.3.2-4.80.8.${ARCH}.rpm:new \
linux_base-rh-9/Makefile:DISTFILES= glibc-2.3.2-27.9.7.i386.rpm:new \
linux_base-src-rh-8/Makefile: glibc-2.3.2-4.80.8.src.rpm:new \
linux_base-suse-9.1/Makefile:  glibc-2.3.3-98.i586.rpm \
linux_base-suse-9.2/Makefile: glibc-2.3.3-118.i586.rpm \
linux_base-suse-9.3/files/rpmlist.conf:glibc|glibc-2.3.4-23.2.i586.rpm||on



I removed linux_base-8 (glibc 2.3.2) and used the suse 9.3 base
(glibc 2.3.4) and I don't have any problems. If you chose to upgrade
glibc (older linux versions like redhat 8 do not have updated glibc
packages so you might be out of luck), so in effect, glibc versions <
2.3.4 aren't recommended for newer hl1.6 binaries.

Hi!

After this release all my servers just crashes, it happens right after
all cvars are printed to the console for logging. Tried removing the
metamod and just running a plain server, same problem. Server is fully
updated and verified with -verify_all, operating system is Linux
2.6.x.y
and glibc 2.3.2. Servers are started with this argument: ./hlds_run
-autoupdate -debug -game cstrike -maxplayers 17 +map de_dust2 +ip
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. This is what I can see in the console:

L 08/13/2005 - 07:26:32: Server cvars end
L 08/13/2005 - 07:26:33: Server cvar "sv_maxspeed" = "900"
L 08/13/2005 - 07:26:33: Server cvar "pausable" = "0"
./hlds_run: line 424: 11837 Segmentation fault      (core dumped)
$HL_CMD
"/game_cs_4/core.11837" is not a core dump: File truncated
debug.cmds:1: Error in sourced command file:
No stack.
email debug.log to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sat Aug 13 07:26:34 CEST 2005: Server restart in 10 seconds

The debug log does not print anything useful:

----------------------------------------------
CRASH: Sat Aug 13 07:26:34 CEST 2005
Start Line: ./hlds_i686 -autoupdate -debug -game cstrike -maxplayers 17

End of crash report
----------------------------------------------

Here is a strace http://www.gotgame.se/crash-strace.txt as you can see
it crashes when it tries to run:
nanosleep({59, 999126000}, 0) = -1 ERRNO_516 (Unknown error 516)


Versions:

Bootstrapper version: 14
Versions installed in '.':

We have released an update to the Half-Life 1: Engine. Run the
hldsupdatetool to get this update.

The update fixes a couple crashes on startup related to bad network
configurations.

This update supersedes the beta release from last night.
